WOW Euro Towns: European-Style Living in Canadian Wine Country
By Jen Taylor on Nov 05, 2014
In the heart of Ontario’s wine country, just south of the historic Niagara-on-the-Lake community, and along the border of the Niagara Escarpment and Twenty Valley lies Pinewood’s latest residential project, WOW Euro Towns. These European-style homes are nestled within an emerging culinary scene, countless wineries, world-class theatre, breathtaking countryside, and some of Canada’s greatest natural landscapes including the Bruce Trail and the spectacular Niagara Falls.
Fall is the perfect time to make a trip to the site of Pinewood’s WOW Euro Towns. Not only is driving through the Niagara region beautiful as the foliage changes colour, but Pinewood Homes is also offering an exclusive Fall Promotion valued at over $40,000! Homebuyers have the opportunity to customize their home and choose between granite kitchen countertops, a stackable washer and dryer, or wrought iron railings. Pinewood is also offering a bonus package of luxury features including 9’ ceilings on the ground and main floor, laminate flooring, berber carpet on the upper floor, air conditioning, three stainless steel appliances, an electric barbeque, and an elegant patio to ensure your home is in top form for the housewarming party.
In addition to these bonus features, homebuyers can choose between two elevations (Elevation A featured above) and five layouts that feature second floor balconies perfect for relaxing with a good book and a glass of wine, or barbecuing with family and friends. The WOW Euro Towns also offers amazing features including oak handrails (painted or naturally stained), quality cabinetry, an external sprinkler system, and an exterior Euro design with brick, stone, and stucco. Pinewood Homes strives to strike a balance between luxury and affordability, pricing these 1,000 to 1,300 square foot modern homes from the low $200,000s.
